New CEO appointed for Westermo

Jenny Sjödahl is appointed to the position of CEO for the Westermo business entity with effect from November 1, 2017.

Jenny Sjödahl has been with Westermo since August 2016 in the position of Vice President Sales. Jenny has previously worked for more than 18 years in ABB in both Sweden and Singapore in sales, marketing and general management positions.

Following this, Lars-Ola will move to a role within Business Development, reporting to me and focusing on activities at the Beijer Electronics Group level”, says Per Samuelsson.
